Thanks man. I'm glad you have enjoyed it and your comments have helped me keep going. It's been a tough WT for me. Needed encouragement.

As usual, making a WT has been a computer education experience. I left the computer on overnight and I'm picking up where I left off...kind of. I decided to try and get to the throne room. I recorded it but I turned off the OBS and when I turned it back on, I forgot to set it to diablo and it went to some default {scene} and only recorded the audio...I don't want to put it up. Most of the WT has been screen shots and I thought I'd do a few and let the video do the rest....

So the witches weren't too bad but they amped the crew. And then a death lord came over and almost ended the WT. A single death lord and amp is bad. Had to use some valuable rejuvs to recoup. Then dolls snuck up while the wolf was amped and fortunately the wolf could disengage before killing a doll...would have been tragic.

Managed to clear the two corridors to the throne room and then kill a ton of witches with some scattered dolls and death lords. There is some mighted witches on the far right side. Their might extends into the right side corridor...pain. I did put up the audio only youtube in the Tammyfaye Diablo2 channel. I'm not putting it here. though. If you are really interested in listening to the battle, it's there. It does catch some tense moments. So here is a screenshot from wave 2:



Colenzo was pretty easy. Seems fury wolf owns those carvers. On this guy, Achmel, I usually try and kill off the skellies and have the vine eat them. Then the resurrectors leave the decrepify area. Worked nicely here. Then I went for Achmel. Would be suicide to attack these guys with cold slowing the party and decrepify slowing the party and poison crushing the party... Wave 2 went nicely.



Fought these guys one at a time. They don't seem to stick together. They were pretty easy.

Don't have the last two summons. I thought the video would tell it all...annoying. Lister's gang was really bad but didn't have too much trouble with the wave 4. There was no aura but they just one or two bit jemali to death a 3 or 4 times. I really needed his amp to process so kept getting him back. Finally killed them all.

Then I went for the Big Guy. I realized the video wasn't working because I paused the game. Baal is such a bitch. The video I made is brief. He's so hard. I kind of lost heart. The video has some bad lag. Not sure why. I kept trying to activate feral rage but by the time I was in fury, the wolf was half dead.



The video is so out of sync. Almost didn't post it.

It's such a grind dealing with Baal. Would be nice to be able to stay down there and make it seem legendary.... Been shaking a lot. Talking and playing isn't making my play good. Was thinking of going to act 2 for rejuvs. Here's a screenshot [I got tired of moaning and groaning and ceased the video]:



Took forever to get this much damage. Just tping in and out. Resurrecting Jemali. Drinking thaws. Filling up. Rebuff occasionally. His tenacles are terrifying. Can't get Jemali's amp off much either. And it seems like it doesn't last long. After a very long time:



Listening to the Cubs vs Giants game and trying to pass the time consuming grind:



Using up tons of gold.

Was thinking about the hardest part of the WT: getting past the Arcane Sanctuary. The wolf danced and weaved through many badass ghosts. Things could have gone very wrong. But as luck would have it, he lived and only had to do one leg of that terrifying maze. It was also where I failed miserably in my previous try with a titan werewolf with rares/crafts/blues only. I DID NOT TELEPORT this time around ;) The other tough spot was going for Izual and running into a convicted soul. If I hadn't caught a momentary glimpse of conviction on the charging Jemali, I would have met the doom of several souls and an extra fast lightning enchant while convicted: insta-death. Thanks for watching and your kind comments throughout the WT.

In my previous WT, I got scragged by a lone ghost. So embarrassing. Thank you. I'll post a video of his items later today. I have to work now. Thanks for watching.

Lots of scary and hard work. I think if I had to sum up this WT or the personality of Hops, I'd say he was the reluctant warrior. I did not want to go into Worldstone 1, 2 or 3 nor into the huge numbers of tps thrown in the Worldstone Chambers-- That took forever. Those tenacles were just awful. I saw in your epic badassed staff sorc WT that you had some lag issues. Do you have any tips? What is your 'resolution' set at? Do you use OBS? Fabi's suggestions helped a lot but there is still some delay.

Appreciate it. I'm still hoping to kill Nhil or get past Pindleskin. Could still die. I want to put a signature on the feral axe I gambled early on. I couldn't have made it through without the luck of finding either weapon.

..........

Well, I might submit the two weapons to that tough committee on pvm Trophy assessment :) I wouldn't have if Hops had died. The two axes were pretty similar. One gambled and one found in LK rares galore superchest. If fools mod'd Skull Edge wasn't found, I couldn't have dealt with the many bad situations in hell. AR is huge. The Sunder battle axe was a bit better and it likely sped things up some. Both were really awesome. I know there are better possible weapons out there but not in my walkthrough experience. I'll post video of the Weapons later Today.

Hops is looking forward to retirement.

Taken out in wilderness.
